***IMPROVED VERSION OF 85-1487 found here https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3325880/***
85-1487 and 85-1498 from 107 FS, 127th FW, Selfridge ANGB, MI as they would of appeared during the squadron's Iraq deployment to Kirkuk Airbase in 2004.  Vipers from the 107th were the first F-16s to be stationed in-country during Operation Iraqi Freedom.  

*** 15 August Update ***
Summary of Changes:
Added 85-1487
Added more realistic wear to 85-1498
Added victory marks to 85-1498
  

85-1498 is a F-16C Block 30B.  The aircraft was assigned to the 107th Fighter Squadron during the 2004 Operation Iraqi Freedom deployment to Kirkuk airbase.  85-1498 eventually earned 9 LGB strike marks.  After BRAC in 2005, the 107th traded their Vipers for A-10s and this aircraft went on to serve with the  119th Fighter Squadron NJ ANG at Bagram Airbase during Operation Enduring Freedom in 2011, before ultimately ending up at AFRC, TX ANG where it continues to serve today.  It is entirely possible this aircraft provided CAS and Strike support for me as I was there at that time and used Vipers fr om Bagram for CAS/Strike.

85-1487 is also a F-16C Block 30B.  This aircraft was also assigned to the 107th Fighter Squadron during O.I.F in 2004 at Kirkuk AB.  85-1487 earned 3 gun, 1 LGB, and 1 JDAM strike marks.  85-1487 was transferred to 163FS, Indiana Air National Guard in 2009 and is now assigned to 93FS, Florida Air National Guard wh ere it continues to serve today.
